Making Your First Comic
A Beginner Level Course
Everything you need to create your first comic, even if you’ve never made one before.
“Comic artists are born, not made.” — that’s a myth.
✨ Maybe you think people who make comics always had great ideas.
✨ Maybe you believe they just sit down and stories magically appear on the page.
✨ Maybe you’ve told yourself, “I don’t know how to tell a story” or “I can’t draw well enough.”
But here’s the truth: making comics is a skill — not magic.
What you admire in finished comics comes from planning, practice, and learning how story, characters, and visuals work together.
You don’t need to be a “natural” to start. You just need curiosity, a willingness to experiment, and a place to put your ideas.
In this course, I’ll guide you step by step through the fundamentals of making your first comic — from loose ideas and scribbles to a complete, intentional page.
Let’s make your first comic. You’re already a comic artist.
Making comics is a skill anyone can learn!
Do you have stories, scenes, or characters living in your head?
Do you love comics but feel unsure how to actually make one?
Are you a beginner or a casual doodler who wants to turn ideas into a finished comic with confidence?
Making comics isn’t just for the “naturally talented” — anyone can learn it.
I designed this course for aspiring comic artists at the very beginning of their journey — from complete beginners to creators who’ve tried before but felt stuck or overwhelmed.
You’ll learn the core building blocks of comics: how to develop a story, create compelling characters, build a believable world, and combine words and visuals through paneling, pacing, and composition.
Let’s make your first comic — one page, one scene, one choice at a time.
Hey, I’m Toni!
I’m Toni Lee, also known as tough bunny — a queer Filipina-American illustrator and the creator of the webcomic FIO. My work centers on human connection, love, and identity, told through colorful storytelling and expressive, character-driven art.
This beginner-friendly course introduces you to making your very first comic, from early ideas and rough sketches to finished pages. We’ll explore story, characters, world-building, and visual storytelling, helping you build confidence, experiment freely, and learn how to think like a comic artist — no perfection required.
Imagine overcoming your fears…
Â
🖋️ You sit down with an idea and finally know how to turn it into a comic page.
🖋️ No more staring at a blank page—you have tools to plan, write, and draw with intention.
🖋️ Each panel becomes a clear choice, telling your story through characters, pacing, and visuals.
How does that feel?
Today, you can choose to start making the comic you’ve been thinking about.
Comics are a powerful way to tell stories—and learning how they work gives you the confidence to begin.
In this course, we’ll explore the foundations of comic-making: story, characters, world-building, and visual storytelling. You’ll learn how to plan without overthinking, experiment without fear, and bring your ideas to life one page at a time.
I’ll be with you every step of the way. ✨
At the end of the course you will:
Sketch Confidently
You’ll create pages inspired by gardens, parks, and the natural world, capturing what you see with ease.
Think Like a Comic Artist
You’ll learn how to read, observe, and study stories—comics, books, TV, and films—with a “comic brain” that helps you improve your own work.
Plan, Experiment, and Finish
Your process will include planning without overthinking, experimenting freely, and confidently bringing a scene from rough ideas to finished pages.
